SQL Examiner software has been evolving since 2003 and has seen many technologicalimprovements that made it stand out of the other competing products. The engineersat TulaSoft were the first to add support for Microsoft Windows Vista, integrate anopportunity for partial synchronization, and realize support for SQL Server 2005.The company doesn't stop at these achievements, extending the product'sfunctionality with a new unique capability to use backups as a synchronizationsource and an opportunity to compare them with live databases, which so far has hadno analogues among the similar software.
Users of the new version will benefit from the opportunity to spend less time onsynchronizing the structure of databases and migration of data. Databaseadministrators regularly create backups of their databases, and no one keeps severalversions of one and the same database on the server. To compare the data stored inthe backup with that of the working database, users would restore it, which was aseverely time-consuming task if the database was large. Unlike similar software, SQLExaminer Suite compares a live database with a backup itself, making the process ofcomparison much quicker. In doing it, there'll be no need to restore the backup, andit'll be enough to specify the needed database and click 'Compare'.
"We often received requests from our end-users, asking us to add support for abacked-up database so that it can be used as a source of data," says MikhailGerasimov, CEO of TulaSoft. "When we added this capability and beta testing began,we got a lot of enthusiastic feedback from the end-users of the beta version. Now,the comparison of a backed-up database and a live one has become handier andquicker, resembling a point-and-click procedure."
Here are some key benefits that the new feature provides: - Quicker comparison of a backed-up database with a working one. No need to restorea backup as a separate database.- Quicker and simpler finding of the necessary data, because there is no need tospend time on restoring several old copies.- Less time is spent on search of changes that were made after creation of the lastbackup.- Simple viewing of changes that were made during the period between two backups.- An opportunity to rollback changes in the data for several tables, while the datain other tables remains unchanged.
SQL developers make plenty of changes to a development database before they migrateits data to a production database, which involves hours of intensive scripting donemanually. Errors and their debugging make things even more difficult. SQL ExaminerSuite will help developers synchronize schemas and data between two databases in apain-free manner. Microsoft SQL Server 7.0, 2000, 2005 is fully supported. There isa wide range of opportunities to configure the parameters of synchronization, whichallows users to get a synchronization script that fully matches their needs. The endresult can be achieved in a few clicks but if necessary, the user can set uppractically any parameter of synchronization. The suite is delivered in a friendlyinterface that is designed in the style of Office 2003 and Visual Studio 2005. Theprogram is Vista-ready and supports all new functions of the newly released OS.
